For game composers
Ambient beds that never loop, at game-audio speed
Generate up to 30 minutes of non-repeating ambient music from any source. Drop the output into FMOD or Wwise and ship your next indie game soundtrack without fighting loop points.
What indie game composers struggle with
Game audio has constraints that studio music doesn't. Loops, layering, memory budgets, and iteration speed all shape what a composer can deliver on a small team.
Audible loop points in long exploration scenes
Even a 2-minute loop becomes obvious after 20 minutes in an open-world area. Players hear the seam, the immersion breaks.
Budget and time pressure
Indie teams rarely have the budget for a full custom score. Royalty-free libraries feel generic. Writing 30 minutes of unique ambient from scratch takes weeks.
Reproducibility for iteration
When a level designer tweaks timing, you often need the same musical feel but with different length. A fixed audio render gives you no flexibility.
Memory and streaming budgets
Long, high-quality audio files are expensive in a build. Compressed alternatives lose the shimmer that makes ambient work.
How Reverie fits into a game audio pipeline
Reverie is not a replacement for a composer – it's a force multiplier. Here's where it shines in a game audio workflow.
- 1
Non-looping beds up to 30 minutes
Generate a single long ambient file from a short source. No seams, no repeats, no loop trickery required in your middleware.
- 2
Seeds for deterministic regeneration
Keep the exact same musical feel while adjusting duration or brightness. Same seed + same source = byte-identical output. Perfect when a scene gets redesigned.
- 3
FMOD / Wwise ready exports
Output WAV or FLAC at 24-bit, preserving your source sample rate. Drop straight into your sound bank. Stereo stems exported cleanly.
- 4
Mood variations from one source
Dreamscape presets let you generate "warm cathedral", "deep abyss", or "foggy forest" versions of the same underlying material. Perfect for dynamic regions.
- 5
Build your own signature
In Pro Chain Builder, combine Dreamtime with Polyrhythm Tremolo (12 rhythmic presets), Chord Layer (16 voicings), Resonator (12 presets), or Formant (8 vowels). Save as a custom preset and reuse across your score.
Features that matter to game audio
30-min exports
Non-looping, non-repeating background beds.
37 DSP modules
From Dreamtime to spectral cross-synthesis.
WAV/FLAC 24-bit
Drop straight into FMOD or Wwise.
Seed reproducibility
Regenerate the same feel at different lengths.
Example: a 5-minute forest ambient bed
Say you've captured a 45-second field recording of birds and wind. You need a 5-minute bed for a forest exploration zone.
- 1Drop the field recording into Reverie (drag & drop from Finder or Explorer).
- 2Pick the "Forest Breathing" preset (one of the 5 new factory presets in 1.13).
- 3Set target duration to 5 minutes. Optionally shift brightness -20 for a darker mood.
- 4Hit Generate. The Dreamtime + Temporal Evolution + Breathing + Reverb chain produces a non-looping 5-minute ambient bed.
- 5Export as 24-bit WAV. Drop into your sound bank.
You just turned 45 seconds of field recording into a 5-minute unique bed, in under a minute of human time. Repeat for every zone of your game.
Game audio FAQ
Can I use Reverie output in a commercial game?
Yes. You own the output. The only constraint is you must have the rights to the source audio you fed in (your own recording, a licensed sample, etc.).
Does Reverie integrate with FMOD or Wwise?
Reverie exports standard WAV, FLAC, OGG, AIFF files at 16 or 24-bit. These drop straight into any game audio middleware's sound bank – FMOD, Wwise, Fabric, or your engine's native audio system.
Can I generate variants for adaptive music?
Yes. Use the same source + same preset + different seeds to generate subtly different versions. Or keep the seed and vary brightness/chaos for musically related but distinct renders.
How does this compare to a full custom score?
Reverie is best seen as a complement to a composer, not a replacement. It excels at long ambient beds, tension drones, and texture layers. For melodic main themes, boss music, or heavily composed cues, you still want a human composer.
